Well, I get an error which says: "The PSSERVICE.EXE file is linked to missing export NETAPI32.DLL:NetServerEnum." and after that proceeds to create a blank getservice notepad file.

Do you have any...

There's a problem with your directions. The getservice program isn't working for some reason, and of course that is half of the solution.

Sorry for not making it clear, but I have already run CWShredder. Hence the reason I've posted the HijackThis log.

I just reinstalled windows XP because it stopped working, but in the process, lost access to my previous accounts. One was deleted outright, but the other is still present, but the computer doesn't...

This is a really n00b question...but I'll go ahead and ask it. When reinstalling windows and reformatting the hard drive, does windows ask you to reinstall the drivers, or do you do that after...

Thanks everyone, I think i may have fixed it. But here's another question. What's WildTangent and how do i get rid of it. I've used Adware and Spybot multiple times, but it keeps reinstalling itself...

I checked and I did find one of the buddylinks folders, but not the main folder or the registry key. But i did find another potential suspect, unless it's some codenamed windows thing :D
Suspect:...

I've used AdWare/Spybot, turned off Windows Messenger and deleted all of the registry keys which seemed suspicious to me. I also used CW Shredder and I'm still getting popups offline. Here's a...

Ok, I managed to delete it. In order to clear up any questions about what I did I'm going to say exactly what I did. First I took it out off add/remove programs, and then I noticed that the folder...

I'm gonna go and reboot to safe mode...

But yes, WinXP has system restore, but I'm not sure how often I set it to update the restore files.

It's still not working... are you sure you posted the correct link?

Geocities isnt letting me view the page. Is there any way to fix this w/o this program?

WinXP home, and the problem is that I cant delete it, of course, not for lack of trying...

OOOO.... more problems! The folder containing the program (I already uninstalled it) still has the read-only box checked, and it won't un-check...

Thanks for the help... I never look in regedit because im always afraid of messing something up :)

Here's the problem, my little brother downloaded this package that contained the MyWebSearch Toolbar, you know, the one that starts to redirect you to its search page when you're online. But now,...

Thanks all! I just deleted the file, so i think it was just a temp file that decided to stick around.

No, my av program is stupid. I right click a file and all it shows is power archiver functions, plus copy, paste and all of that. Im using the version of McAffe AV that came with my computer :)

I...

I deleted it, and so far there hasn't been any problems. Maybe it was just some stray temp file...

Yeah, assuming its an extension. But I just restarted my computer and its still there. If its a temp file, shouldnt it have deleted itself?

So, should I delete it, or restart my computer and see if its still there?

TELNET_OBSESSED , are you sure, because I could have sworn I've deleted it before, but now its back.

Oh, and heres a new link in .jpg format this time :D

I opened it with notepad, and it had a lot of encrypted text and some of my email contacts...

Nope, I can't since the files are too big. Ill just describe it instead. Its a file which is named ~ and is abot 175kb big. The icon is the one it shows when windows doesnt know what the file is and...
